I suffer from Sjogren's Syndrome (autoimmune disease affecting moisture producing glands in the body - dry eyes, dry mouth, digestive issues, etc.), which also produces "brain fog." Brain fog typically presents as distraction, memory problems, starting but not finishing tasks, etc. I also suffer from depression stemming from childhood trauma and repressed memories.
My therapist is currently assessing me to learn whether I have a cognitive 'disorder' or if I experience cognitive symptoms on a more erratic basis. So, my question is: are the cognitive problems I have when I experience a flare of Sjogren's considered neurological in origin? Should I be posting on NeuoTalk?
Thanks, a bunch, if anyone has suggestions or thoughts.
